Google Health is expected to be launched next week!

The rumors have been around for a while, but this week there is even greater news that Google Health will be launching next week. Currently, http://www.google.com/health does get forwarded to an ads site.

USAToday reports that the new service will launch next week. During a recent interview there with Marissa Mayer, Google's VP of search products, Kevin Maney had asked her why Google does not have more products in vertical markets, like health. She directly told him that Health was an interesting topic, and to keep eyes out for it next week.

Currently, Yahoo does offer a Health portal site, at http://health.yahoo.com that provides tons of important health related topics, and answers. Integrating health questions and answers right into the Google search results would boost the market arena for Google even higher.
